Hi @So76,

you can use the search from @Roy_9 that's correct or to use the Monitoring Console that gives you all the information about Forwarders, not only last phoned date.

below search  gives you the list of UF's that haven't phoned in last 24 hours, you could tweak this search.

| rest splunk_server=local /services/deployment/server/clients | eval now=now(), diffTime=now-lastPhoneHomeTime, lastPhoneHomeTime=strftime(lastPhoneHomeTime,"%b %d, %Y %H:%M:%S") | search diffTime>86400 | table hostname ip instanceName utsname package splunkVersion lastPhoneHomeTime
